The Evening Mail Of yesterday ex-
posed a system of petty depreciation or
the tax payers Of Fort Worth that de-
serves notice. When the city printing
was to be let for the current year, TIT
GAZETTE was importuned to bid Thereon
by people who were anxious to see the
ordinances and contract advertisements
it being understood that the Mail would
not bid. In order TO oblige the public
THE GAZETTE waived its regular adver-
Using rates, and offered to DO the work
Of the taxpayers for fifty cents an inch fol
the first insertion Of all city advertising,
snd twenty-five cents On inch for sill sub
sequent insertions OF the same matter
An obscure publication in the city, Of
whose existence not one citizen in fifty
has any knowledge, also made 8
bid, at thirty cents per inch for the
first, and ten cents per inch foI
each subsequent insertion Of the public

TIE IRISH LAND BILL.

The Tory party in the English Com
mons seems to have exhausted its virility
in the passage Of the coercion bill, and
is now losing strength with ominous in
dications of losing domination. The fight
made by the minority was the fight of the
common people, aud, while the govern
ment has trampled upon sill precedent,
sealed the lips Of honorable discussion by
barbarous cloture and forced through this
odious measure by the brutal potentially
of q mechanical majority Of arrogant and
unfeeling eristocrsts, the voX pOpuli does
not sustain the result. The extension of
the franchise has given voice TO large
suDstrstum of British society that is Just
learning to lisp its first infant accents
through the ballot box. Gladstone gave
to these people their right to vote, and
they are naturally disposed to make mani
fest their appreciation of his efforts by
sustaining him in whatever further
phiIanthropic efforts ne may undertake.
On platform, every principle of which
has been violated, the Tories succeeded
20 power, and led by Balfour, an aristo-
cratic dapperling, have turned upon and
struck down the sentiment and suffrage
that placed them in the ascendancy. Il
has long been an axiom that Tory learns
nothing and forgets nothing. His heredi-
tary prejudices and pTe.orian contempt
for the sturdy plebians who have Just
been clothed with the omnipotent fran
chise, blinds him to the fact that the vote
of g laborer counts as much as the vote
of lord. Even the thunderings of con
demnation from every corner OF the civ
ilized world failed to move BsIfour from
mis- one idea Of C0ercing Ireland by fur
Their repressIve legislation. 1t was only
when the props upon which ne stood CON-
menced faling-when Coventry and Pad
dington had sent up men hostile to him
aud retired men favorable to him that he
commenced to realize his position. Then
in the furry of excitement he lost his
leonine imperiousness and assumed the
position of whining supplicant whose
cry was: rI have done the best l knew
how and you are still not satisfied"
By an alteration of natural cIrcum-
stances and an abnormal development Of
the unnecessary, irregular and artificial,
by departure at an acute angle from the
expected and the surprising elevation of
mere chance to power, Bslfour has been
the triumphant leader of q majority while
the greatest man in Englsnd,
perhaps in Europe, has been only par
TALLY leading helpless minority. Such
& state of affairs cannot exist. The con-
test is too unequal. Gladstone, with the
sympathies of the civilized world and
possibly with the votes Of his own coun-
trymen st his back, will crush the Sails
bury government and its dapper little
out of existence. The
